Analyses of the complete genome sequence of 2,6-dichlorobenzamide (BAM) degraderAminobactersp. MSH1 suggests a polyploid chromosome, phylogenetic reassignment, and functions of (un)stable plasmids
Abstract:Aminobacter sp. MSH1 (CIP 110285) can use the pesticide dichlobenil and its transformation product, the recalcitrant groundwater micropollutant, 2,6-dichlorobenzamide (BAM) as sole source of carbon, nitrogen, and energy. The concentration of BAM in groundwater often exceeds the threshold limit for drinking water, resulting in the use of additional treatment in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) or closure of the affected abstraction wells. Biological treatment with MSH1 is considered a potential sustainab… Show more
